Emirates review by Steve 2017-01-24

The Emirates Business Class product is very good indeed. One of the real plus points is the chauffeur service to get me to and from the airport, This represents a saving of over £250 on taxi fares. The lounges at Gatwick and in Dubai are very good, whether you want to relax, have a meal before your flight or sit down and do some work. On board the seats are a little on the narrow side and are not the best for sleeping in, even when the seat is fully extended in to a flat bed. The food is pretty average. I have have had better on other airlines, but have also had a lot worse. I normally eat in the lounge where the choice, quality and freshness is much better. The on board complientary bar on the A380 is a nice touch but I wonder how long it will be before a) it will continue to be free or b) it will be removed altogether. There is room for at least 4 or 6 more seats in that space - we all know how the bean counters like to maximise revenue !! Emirates is my airline of choice and I am prepared to fork out the extra for Business Class. I did once fly in economy on a 777 and it is not an experience i would care to repeat
